    She put out a fire, fed three kids, gave her husband some, defeated robbers, had lunch packed for multiple people, communicated her feelings among other things, and DID NOT GET OFF THAT PHONE!

I couldn't sleep last night, so I have literally been on TH-cam all night with Jenifer Lewis, from stage, to t.v., to film, to interviews. I can't believe it's 8:18 am, and I'm energized instead of sleepy. Now, that's a star...and That Just Proves My Point!

    Gosh, this makes me miss my youth and grandma. She actually did some of these things that Jenifer did when talking on the phone... the oven caught fire while she was on the phone, she stayed calm and somehow put the fire out, but stayed focus on that conversation she was having...true story. If we ran through the kitchen while she was on the phone, she would whack us across the back and shove us out doors... it seemed normal back then.
